Friends:

Evident yet Subtle are the Facts of the Dhamma!

Dependent origination becomes evident, when really seeing & understanding:
When this exists, that also comes into being. The seed initiates the plant...
When this does not exist, that neither comes into being. No seed no plant...
Wrong view of annihilation becomes evident, when seeing and understanding:
All causes are connected with their resulting effect. Nothing just disappears!
Wrong view of eternity becomes evident, when seeing and understanding:
All states arise instantly as new phenomena. They were not there before...
The characteristic of no-self becomes evident, when seeing & understanding:
That all states have no core and that their being depends on other conditions.
The characteristic of impermanence becomes evident, when understanding:
States rise & fall instantly. After having been, they do never exist again!
The characteristic of suffering becomes evident, when comprehending:
All liked phenomena rise and fall. Their inevitable loss is an oppressive pain. 
When these several truths, all aspects of the dependent origination, have
become evident to the Buddhist disciple, then constructions appear to him
as perpetually renewed: So all these states, it seems, not ever having been,
come into existence and then immediately cease... Vism 632
